IBM System I5 ITSO Technical Forum 2006 International Technical Support Organization AMP10 Access your database with iSeries Access IBM System i5 ibm.com the power of one ITSO Technical Forum 2006 Carole A Miner IBM Rochester Client Integration Development [email protected] International Technical Support Organization Simplify your IT © 2006 IBM Corporation ibm.com/redbooks International Technical Support Organization Abstract Did you know that iSeries Access provides many options for working with information in your iSeries database (DB2 UDB for iSeries)? Learn how easy it is to run database requests using the programs and GUIs in Access for Web, iSeries Access for Windows, and iSeries Access for Linux. In this session, you will learn how to access the iSeries database through: • Desktop applications that utilize the .NET, ODBC, and OLE DB drivers in iSeries Access • With no knowledge of SQL or its syntax, you can find, update, add, insert, and delete information and records in an iSeries database. • Use SQL Wizards to build SQL statements and create database tables • Upload PC data to iSeries database through easy-to-use GUIs • Run predefined requests to upload or download data • How to create dynamic queries for other end users to run • Transform Query Manager and Query/400 SQL statements into browser-based statements so they can run without requiring 5250 OLTP CPW capability. © 2006 IBM Corporation ibm.com/redbooks International Technical Support Organization Requirements?

  • Redbooks Paper Bringing PHP to Your IBM Iseries
    David Larson Bryan Logan Redbooks Paper Tim Massaro Heiko Mueller Brian R. Smith Bringing PHP to Your IBM iSeries Server Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) is a powerful server-side scripting language for the Apache Web server. PHP is popular for its ability to process database information and create dynamic Web pages. Server-side refers to the fact that PHP language statements, which are included directly in your HTML, are processed by the Web server. Scripting language means that PHP is not compiled. Since the results of processing PHP language statements is standard HTML, PHP-generated Web pages are quick to display and are compatible with most all Web browsers and platforms. PHP is for the open source Apache community as Net.Data® is for the IBM® community. To “run” PHP scripts with your HTTP Server (powered by Apache), a PHP engine is required on your IBM ^™ iSeries™ server. The PHP engine is an open source product, so this IBM Redpaper demonstrates the process to download, compile, install, and then configure PHP on your iSeries. It explains how to install versions 4.3.0 and the older version 4.2.2 of PHP. The PHP engine is available both as an Apache module and a CGI-BIN. Support for PHP as a module is not yet available for OS/400®. The step-by-step implementation discussed in this Redpaper involves the CGI version of PHP running in OS/400 Portable Application Solutions Environment (PASE). This allows you to run AIX® binaries directly on an iSeries. It includes the necessary patches for the minor modifications needed to the PHP source code.
